Understanding Foxhole Logistics Ratios
In the persistent warfare of Foxhole, every bullet and tank starts at the Refinery. Efficient logistics players (Logi) need to know exactly how much raw material to harvest to meet the front-line demands. This Foxhole Resource Calculator uses the standard refinery conversion ratios to determine your "Scrap" and "Component" needs.
Standard Refinery Conversion Ratios
- Basic Materials (Bmats): 2 Salvage = 1 Bmat. These are the backbone of construction and small arms.
- Refined Materials (Rmats): 20 Components = 1 Rmat. Required for armored vehicles and advanced weaponry.
- Explosive Materials (Emats): 10 Salvage = 1 Emat. Essential for grenades, mortar shells, and basic artillery.
- Heavy Explosive Materials (HEmats): 5 Sulfur = 1 HEmat. Used for high-tier shells and specialized demolition tools.
Logistics Efficiency Example
If you need to produce a crate of 40mm shells, you might need a specific amount of Bmats and Emats. For example, if your production order requires 100 Bmats and 20 Emats:
- Salvage for Bmats: 100 x 2 = 200 Salvage
- Salvage for Emats: 20 x 10 = 200 Salvage
- Total Salvage Needed: 400 Salvage
The Logistics Loop: Pro Tips
When using this calculator, remember to factor in transport time. A standard transport truck (like the Dunne Transport or R-1 Hauler) can carry 1,500 units of raw salvage (15 slots of 100). If the calculator tells you that you need 4,500 Salvage, you are looking at exactly 3 full truck loads from the Scrap Mine to the Refinery.
For large-scale operations involving Flatbeds or Freighters, ensure your "Crates" are calculated beforehand at the Factory, as finished goods are often moved in crates rather than individual units to maximize storage efficiency in Seaports and Storage Depots.
